Or being used in warfare to simply make iconic structures or places of command disappear, bringing down the morale of the enemy and severely disabling their ability to fight back. Except they'd probably have ISOT-bombs, too.That's a fascinating idea. I expect you'd see governments using ISOT bombs to destroy toxic/nuclear waste and to refresh resources.
Has anyone ever done an atom-bomb iSOT scenario? For example, if in 1945 instead of being harmed/obliterated/destroyed, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were ISOT'd to a blank Earth... and their location replaced with more virgin Earth?
Radio-active ISOTopes!
Radio-active ISOTopes!
There being no dangerous radiation but 100% annihilation within the target zone is going to make such weapons a mighty attractive instrument. Non-military purposes are going to vastly outnumber the military ones. The replacement by virgin soil only adds to that, since it somewhat compensates for enormous loss of matter that large-scale use would entail.
Ironically, this would be THE solution to radio-active waste.
And Delaware, while we're at it.
That is such a cool idea. I don't know a huge deal about mammoths' range, but if Hiroshima/Nagasaki was the first ISOT bomb, then Japan would gain earliest access to such creatures if the range extended that far east. (Was Japan connected to mainland AsiA in the last Glacial Maximum?). Scientific research and tourism would be the main focuses I would imagine? It would be very cool, for mammoths to become extant species again, even in OTL. Though it seems quite unlikely to happen ."Virgin Earth" is generally assumed to be (?) from around the Younger Dryas event. What would happen if you re-ISOTed mammoths, macrauchenia/other Meridiungulata, or even just a species like Hipparion?
Though if the ISOT bombs all go to the same place, that means the victims of former wars would have to figure out how to contain the radioactive waste being sent back and try to predict which wartime city or military installation would be zapped into their world next. Could they develop ISOT bombs of their own to try and send people and objects back to Earth Prime?Radio-active ISOTopes!

If ISOT bombs are just atom bombs endowed with ISoT power by ASB, then it should be possible eventually. Although I assume they would be technologically disadvantaged to begin with.Though if the ISOT bombs all go to the same place, that means the victims of former wars would have to figure out how to contain the radioactive waste being sent back and try to predict which wartime city or military installation would be zapped into their world next.

All of the industrial waste would probably help them in that regard. They'd have no shortage of plastics and they could repair outdated or broken electronics and industrial machinery that were bombed into their world, or disassemble them for steel and rare earth metals. If the original Earth is bombing its nuclear waste then it could conceivably be processed and recycled to create plutonium reactors (and bombs) once the machinery is all in place.If ISOT bombs are just atom bombs endowed with ISoT power by ASB, then it should be possible eventually.

Elsewhere though, in a nondescript estate in Odin, such conspiracies and events fall by the wayside as an albino Imperial officer pays his respects to an unmarked monument; it is the only time in a year that this otherwise boisterous embodiment of the Reich's principles does so. Hidden underneath are a pair of long-broken glasses, a rusting Iron Cross and a rotted flower, all encased in special glass. Their symbolism is lost to time...but not to this man. He had after all seen history unfold on Earth.
He was there...
Presumably, nobody would know where the ISOT'd regions went. From such a perspective, they may 'have to assume' that the people in such regions ceased to exist. If I had never heard of an ISOT, I might assume that a bomb transforming a city into, let's say forest area; was replacing the area with how it had been in the pre-Human era. ~
Your most welcome!
Oh, that's actually very interesting. He may not be alone, but clearly he deeply missed those closest to him. Planetary personifications would be fascinating to look at, both within the Empire and Alliance.
Heinessen himself being the Alliance's personification is also very unique and oddly makes a lot of sense.
I can only assume the Nation-Spirt of Reinhard's Empire would look like Prussia's brother, Germany.
Took me a while to catch on that it's Prussia in the distant future of Reinhard and Yang. Hetalia isn't a thing for me, to be blunt. :v
Sorry to be the village idiot here, but could you please ad some bit of text explaining what is what? I get the impression that you turned Portugal into Mississipi, but I'm not sure.Here's the (presumed) final map of the Americas and (most of) Eurasia swapped. The USE's capital is Luxembourg City, since I couldn't decide on anywhere else.View attachment 493314
